Choosing the Right Manufacturing Hub for You: Alternatives to China

Today, one of the biggest decisions that an Amazon seller is faced with is simple: choosing a country in which they are going to manufacture their private label goods. Amazon sellers’ choice where to source their goods could be one of the most important aspects of building your brand.

As an entrepreneur, you need to not only be mindful of your intellectual property, but also to the fiscal side of business that focuses on the numbers and where you are succeeding/hurting. Private label businesses must focus on efficient manufacturing while emphasizing cost-reduction.

For Amazon sellers, the major reasons to consider Vietnam for the manufacturing of your goods include:
